ETSU accepting applications for next cohort of its STRIVE program

It is a no-cost entrepreneurship training program tailored for veterans, active-duty service members, reservists, and military spouses.

East Tennessee State University (ETSU) has opened applications for the next cohort of its STRIVE program.

It is a no-cost entrepreneurship training program tailored specifically for veterans, active-duty service members, reservists, and military spouses who are ready to turn their business ideas into reality. ETSU is one of only two institutions nationwide selected by Syracuse to host the STRIVE program, a distinction that underscores ETSU’s deep and growing investment in military-affiliated students.

The eight-week program begins September 18 and happens as a partnership between ETSU’s College of Business and Technology, the Tennessee Small Business Development Center and Syracuse University’s Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF), a national leader in veteran entrepreneurship.

The deadline to apply is August 1 at this link.
